CEDEC 2027: Announcement of Event Dates

The Computer Entertainment Developers Conference (CEDEC) 2027 is scheduled to take place from July 14 to July 16, 2027. Organized by the Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA), this event serves as a premier professional gathering for the Japanese game development industry. The conference will maintain a hybrid format, combining in-person sessions at the Pacifico Yokohama North venue with a comprehensive online presence to facilitate knowledge sharing and technical collaboration among industry practitioners.

These sessions cover a broad spectrum of industry-relevant topics, including the development histories of major hit titles, technical innovations, and practical strategies for improving workflow efficiency. By leveraging both physical and digital platforms, the conference aims to foster a robust environment for technical exchange among top-tier domestic and international experts.

The scope of the conference encompasses all facets of computer entertainment development, targeting professionals seeking to enhance their technical expertise and industry network. By continuing the hybrid model established in previous iterations, the organizers intend to maximize accessibility for a diverse audience of developers. Further details regarding the program and registration will be managed through the official conference website and social media channels, with the CESA secretariat overseeing the coordination of the three-day event.
